O.S.No.148/2010, passed by the Principal Senior Civil

properties and allow I.A.Nos.1 and 2.
This appeal coming on for Final Hearing, this day,
the Court delivered the following:-
JUDGMENT
Learned counsel for the appellant remained absent
on several occasions i.e., 02.01.2018, 20.03.2020,
07.10.2020, 03.11.2020, 18.11.2020, 11.01.2020,
09.02.2021, 16.02.2021 and 28.02.2022. On 28.02.2022,
though none appeared for the parties, finally, a week's
time was granted to the learned counsel for the appellant
to address arguments making it clear that in case the
learned counsel for the appellant fails to address
arguments on the next date of hearing, appropriate order
would be passed including dismissal of the appeal for non-
prosecution. Even today case is called thrice. None
appears for the appellant. Despite granting several
opportunities, learned counsel for the appellant has not
shown diligence. It seems that the appellant is not
interested in prosecuting the appeal. Hence, the appeal is
dismissed for non-prosecution.
